Garden Spaces Updates

One of the ideas that seems to have originated in the United States and really taken hold over here is the 'Man Cave'. Although British men have had personal spaces for many generations before, they were referred to in terms such as 'Father's Study' and generally brought up images of wingback chairs and shelves of old leather-bound volumes.

According to a recent poll, the British are generally a gentle, fairly easy to please bunch. When asked about our favourite pastimes, the most popular activities included long walks in the countryside, reading in the garden and the odd pint at the pub. Looking a little further down the list, it also included playing with children and pets in the garden, birdwatching and, surprisingly in the digital age, reading the paper.
